Hey Everyone. Im sure quite a few of you have been waiting for updates.
Well i had a bit of time on my hands today, but im sorry to say i havnt started on my bucket yet (still need materials, i am printing my templates on thicker paper but anyway thats for later )
I did though finish my Mando Sketch

Well after a bit of tinkering with photoshop i was finally able to make the pictures able to be uploaded.

Heres the finished sketch of my mando (its only up to the waist because its mainly to show what extra emblems and stuff there will be) There might be more added on when i actually make my armor and bucket.

I dont know if anyone will want, but..... im willing to draw anyones Mandalorian sketch for them and or a mandalorian description (like above) for free.
If you would like me too, either send me a PM or post on this thread.

I am getting some of the materials i need today. So assembly should start tomorrow, I am printing my bucket templates on stronger paper so i can assemble it and later apply some bondoglass. We'll see how long this will take

u might think about going to target/walmart and grabbing a few cheap plastic trashcans too... Adonian, Ordeyn and Myself are all building out of trashcans and they usually turn out well if u're willing to stick it out through the heating, and shaping, and cooling... and possibly repeat. I would NOT try to make the gaunts or bu'cuy out of trashcan tho... the plastic's a lil bit too tough to do it easily.

Ok you know how i said i had to kick myself in the butt to get myself going?
Apperently it only gets me going for one step So Im going to have to kick myself real hard to get those templates cut out and put together

And, as Kal'ika said, trashcans are a great way to go. Also, storage bins works really well. ONE END did his gear out of them and it turned out REALLY nice.

I've been searchin threads that I havent seen, and lo and behold my name pops up again .
And did someone mention a laserwhip?

Lemme just warm it up a bit... ZZZZZZZZZZZZZzzzz HHHMMmmmmmmmmmm.

Yup, nice and warm

Anyway... yeah, the easy way to start is to get trash cans from wal*mart and trace your pattern with a sharpie, then dremmel them out, but be careful, molten plastic is gonna fly... also go slowly or you may damage your plates.
